Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Kyiv would not make territorial compromises to achieve peace. He also said that, according to Kiev, the territorial integrity of Ukraine should be restored within the borders of 1991.

Earlier, the press secretary of the President of Ukraine, Sergei Nikiforov, said that the peace plans of Kiev and Beijing had found common ground. On April 7, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that negotiations on a settlement in Ukraine could only be held on the basis of taking into account Russian interests.
